The SaaS Trap Is Costing Your Business Millions

SaaS feels easy at first — until the costs rise and the value disappears.

📈

Renewal prices increase every year.

You’re paying for 100% but only using 20%. The rest is SaaS bloat that slows your team down.

🔗

Teams struggle with 10+ disconnected tools.

💸

After years of spend, you still own nothing.

It's endless rent with no equity, no control, and no return on investment.

The Hidden Cost of SaaS Bloat

SaaS vendors keep adding new features to raise subscription prices. The result isn't more value — it's bloated software your teams barely use.

  • Extra complexity slows down adoption.
  • Productivity drops as key functions get buried.
  • Costs climb while ROI shrinks.

Did You Know SaaS Doesn't Qualify for R&D Tax Credits?

SaaS subscriptions are pure expense. KEYSYS custom engineering qualifies for R&D tax credits — typically 6–14% back. Combine that with amortization and asset creation, and the financial equation shifts dramatically in your favor.

SaaS Subscriptions

Traditional software subscriptions offer zero tax advantages and create no lasting value for your business.

  • Pure operating expense
  • No R&D tax credit eligibility
  • Zero asset creation
  • No amortization benefits
  • Rising costs year over year

KEYSYS Custom Engineering

Custom software development qualifies for significant tax advantages while building lasting business assets.

  • 6-14% R&D tax credit return
  • Capitalized business asset
  • Amortization tax benefits
  • One-time investment
  • Predictable total cost

The Financial Equation Shifts in Your Favor

Three powerful financial advantages working together

R&D Tax Credits

Get 6-14% of your investment back through federal and state R&D tax credit programs

Asset Amortization

Spread the tax benefits over multiple years through software asset amortization

Balance Sheet Value

Create a tangible asset that improves your company's financial position
